KatzAbosch Creates Animated Video Series

March 12, 2012, 5:27 a.m. EDT 1 Min Read

Baltimore-based CPA firm KatzAbosch has turned into a part-time cartoon maker, and has created a second season of animated video sketches for YouTube.

The series, entitled “Gotta Love Tax Season,” can be found on the firm’s YouTube channel, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAUz0kw0LtY. The first episode of the season is online now, with a pair of accountants discussing St. Patrick's Day and tax deadlines with seemingly computer-generated voices.

The first season of the series brought the firm its first-ever marketing award from the Association for Accounting Marketing. Last year, KatzAbosch earned a 2011 Marketing Achievement Award for Best Multimedia Campaign. The series also received press coverage in The Huffington Post, Baltimore Sun and several online blogs.

Season Two will feature new episodes every two weeks from now until tax day, April 17, 2012.
